Program
A half century ago, life was simpler, love was sweeter, and the music of the day was evolving from big band and blues to an exciting new sound called "rock 'n' roll." The Colts evoke memories of the heartland when cruisin' the strip was king, and cookin' up some cool beats was a little piece of heaven. At a time when Elvis couldn't help falling in love, and Jerry Lee shouted, "Great balls of fire," the Colts were born in a quiet corner of Iowa where simple pleasures and a determined spirit defined this place where dreams come true.
REPERTOIRE
"Can't Help Falling In Love," by Hugo Peretti, Luigi Creatore and George David Weiss
"At Last," by Mack Gordon and Harry Warren
"American Graffiti," an arrangement by Aaron Guidry
"The Place Where Dreams Come True" (from Field of Dreams), by James Horner
"Chorale & Fugue In Jazz," by Morton Gould

Mail Drops
|
Please remember NOT to have anyone send anything via UPS, Federal Express, or any other carrier except the US POSTAL SERVICE. Also, never have anything sent directly to our housing site. The school secretary will think it is the new textbook the teacher ordered, and put it in the school warehouse until fall.
Address all mail as follows:
GENERAL DELIVERY
HOLD FOR COLTS DRUM & BUGLE CORPS
(Member Name)
MAIN POST OFFICE (except Muncie)
*ADDRESS
*CITY, STATE, ZIP CODE
*Use the mail drop location for the last two address lines.
May 25 - June 22
General Delivery
Hold for Colts Drum & Bugle Corps
(Member Name)
P.O. Box 515
Dubuque, IA 52004-0515
August 7 - 10
General Delivery
Hold for Colts Drum & Bugle Corps
(Member Name)
Muncie Post Office
501 West Memorial Drive
Muncie, IN 47302-9998
There will be an additional drop or two when we have housing locations completely confirmed. Send something every time! And pass these addresses around to friends and family, too! Anything that arrives late will be automatically forwarded to the next mail drop.
Mail early to be sure. Express Mail can provide guaranteed delivery times in a pinch. Consider Priority Mail Flat Rate boxes for heavier "care packs" although Priority Mail generally does not save time over First Class mail. Packages should be shipped First Class, not Parcel Post.
